![]() ![]() ![]() The result is one of the weirdest releases to roll off the assembly line in some time. Matthew McConaughey is a deep-sea fisherman and Anne Hathaway his sultry ex-wife, locked in a film noir plot on a tropical island - until director Steven Knight’s story takes an absolutely bizarre turn. As it is, “Serenity” isn’t wild enough to become more than a head-scratching oddity. It’s all pretty nutty, but I wish the film had actually gone farther - it might have hit a vein of really original weirdness. She owns a black cat that seems to have tremendous significance, until, I guess, it doesn’t. Hathaway is woefully underprepared to attempt a femme fatale, and Lane’s character appears set up for something that ended up on the cutting-room floor. Which is actually kind of weird once you find out the meta-story of what we’re watching, but whatever. Universe, Shepard Book, and Wash and then flies off into space.What about the actors, you say? Surely they offer some distraction? McConaughey’s in he-man mode, and seems to enjoy getting his T-shirts wet and/or wriggling out of his pants. He realizes that he was fighting for the wrong team and helps the Serenity crew out by fixing their ship. The Alliance operative calls a stand down and lets the Serenity crew go. She ends up killing all of them and by that time the Alliance cops bust through a wall. River is NOT dead and kicking some serious Reaver ass. Mal kicks the Alliance operative's ass all over the place and broadcasts the signal. She throws her brothers medicine bag to him and gets carried off by Reavers. River decides that its her turn to protect her brother, Simon, and jumps through the hole in the blast door. The blast door gets stuck and they have no means of shutting it unless one of them goes out and closes it from the outside. The Reavers overwhelm the rest of the crew and they try to seek refuge in a hallway behind them. The Alliance operative gets past the Reavers through the vents and down the shaft to stop Mal. Mal goes down the shaft and the rest try to keep the Reavers back until the signal about Miranda is broadcast. All the while they are pursued by Reavers. Sitting in the pilots chair, Wash gets impaled and the rest of the crew get holed up in a small room that leads to the generator shaft where they need to broadcast the signal. Serenity gets past the Alliance to the planet below, but a couple of Reaver ships were able to get past the Alliance also. They fire on the floating Reaver ships and they end up following the Serenity ship to where the Alliance is waiting. But the Serenity crew knows that the Alliance would try something like this so they decide to bring some friends. Universe betrays the crew by telling them that they are safe to touch down on his planet. However, the Alliance operative tracking River has reached him first and Mr. And yet, it is this twist, and the different ways each. Universe and decides to broadcast the signal from his planet where it would each over 30 worlds. Night Shyamalan is watching this movies twist and thinking to himself Yikes, glad this isnt my movie. Mal decides that the rest of the universe needs to see the evil of the Alliance. ![]() The other 10% became crazed non-humans, they cut their faces and began eating the rest of the population that were not yet dead. 90% population stopped breeding, eating, sleeping, and finally stopped breathing. However, the "pacts" surpressed those emotions but it also surpressed others. Without those feelings there could be no war or violence. The scientists that created Miranda placed "pax" (latin for "peace") into the vents that surpressed emotions. 10 years ago, a planet named Miranda was to be the perfect world, the perfect society. The secret that River saw in the minds of key members of Parliment. There they witness the horrible secret that the Alliance will kill to keep under wraps. There are no signs of war or terra-forming gone wrong, so the crew follow a weak signal to an abandoned lab. They touch down and realize that the planet's population are dead and decaying. After getting past Reaver space, the crew reach Miranda, an unmarked planet in the solar system. ![]()
